In 2019 we have developed replacement for “thick” ropes Mastrant-P. The line of diameters 6-8-10-12-14 will be replaced by new ropes Mastrant-Q with complex cores (Polyester and Polypropylene fibers) in diameters 6-8-11-14. These new ropes belongs to CLASSIC class and are even less expensive than Mastrant-P. Details.

Our original stainless steel mast clamps are already available also in light version. Abspannklemme MA2 Leichte, Edelstahl

In November we were on the last show in this year. Our team visited 21 shows in USA, England, Germany, Italy, Spain, Switzerland, Belgium, Portugal and in the Czech Republic. It is the most hamfests in the history that Mastrant has attended. We were very pleased to meet you and hope to see you again in the future!

We started production of "Camouflage look" of two sizes of Mastrant-P – called Mastrant-C. It is targeted for customers who need "invisible" guying in specific environment. The main color is tan with brown “dots”. They are available in sizes "3+" (3.5 mm, 9/64") and "6" (6.2 mm, 1/4").  Seil Mastrant-C 3,5 mm - Tarnung

We are updating the ratings for Breaking Strength and Safe Working Load for our most popular rope, 4mm and 5mm Mastrant-P. We began improving the construction of this rope in our production process more than 6 years ago and have been testing samples from each run. We are now satisfied that the changes have resulted in consistent, permanent improvements. Here are the new ratings:
Mastrant-P, 4 mm: BS=440 daN (about 440 kg, 970 lb.), SWL=132 daN (about 132 kg, 290 lb.)
Mastrant-P, 5 mm: BS=540 daN (about 540 kg, 1190 lb.), SWL=162 daN (about 162 kg, 360 lb.)
